Rating metrics: Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)

This album is rated in the top 11% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.7/100, a mean average of 73.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.1.

Voce e personalità dell'autrice e poi una band che crea una tavolozza sonora dai mille colori, un gospel con cui divertirsi, piangere, ballare, pensare, commuoversi.

To The Limit is a looser collection of songs than her 2 previous albums (Joan Armatrading & Show Some Emotion). Wishing, You Rope You Tie Me, Barefoot & Pregnant & Bottom To The Top are all brilliant but Baby I and The Letter are top notch Armatrading songs that are the cream on the top here.
